Hi, Praveeni here - an independent artist and designer from Kandy, Sri Lanka. Muses of Ceylon is a collection of original artworks that I have been slowly developing since 2019. This collection is an expression of femininity and soft empowerment, heavily influenced by my love for all things design and fashion, along with modern fusions of Sri Lankan identity. 

While the themes vary, the through-line across the artworks is the subject -  a muse - of Sri Lankan origin. Each muse is grounded in a carefully curated concept, in which I often utilize fashion styling as a channel to reference specific cultural touchpoints. 

Since the very first muse - Manike in shades - illustrated in 2019, this collection is open edition and ever evolving as I continue to explore my artistic curiosities. The artworks are painted digitally by hand, and made into high-definition physical prints with care in Sri Lanka.

Prints of the collection are available to purchase at a select few design boutiques across the island of Sri Lanka, and seasonally on this online shop. Follow the journey on instagram @muses.of.ceylon.
